A 1993 Mercury Sable driven by Dean Spurgeon, 19, slid into the rear of a tractor-trailer whose driver who appeared to not be aware of the accident and continued northbound. The Spurgeon car was totaled.
There have been reports of numerous minor accidents and slide offs around the area and no serious injuries so far. The Bates County Sheriff's Department has stepped up patrols and indicate there are many vehicles stuck along roadways around the county.
